    Since the beginnings of the Industrial Age in the mid 19th century, the earth has experienced a very rapid increase in the amount of pollutants in the air and the water, due to emissions from automobiles, factories, chemical plants and other manufacturing methods which use fossil fuels, such as coal and petroleum, to create power. But within the last thirty years or so, the amount of pollution in our air and water has reached what some consider as a tipping point, meaning that pollution is slowly yet surely poisoning not only our air and water but also living environments all over the planet. Many proposals have been put forward concerning ways to decrease pollution and to help slow down global warming, yet the causes and effects of air and…

Bird is the Prime Minister of Antigua. You may be the sort of tourist who would wonder why a Prime Minister would want an airport named after him – why not a school, why not a hospital, why not some great public monument?” (3)…

    "Air Pollution." GEG Project RSS2. GEG Project, n.d. Web. 29 Nov. 2012. This informative web article details the process of air pollution. In defining air pollution—when specific compounds in the atmosphere reach a point to which they cause change in the environment—it is observed that large quantities of these pollutants can be harmful. Natural processes such as volcanic eruptions decay of organic matter, and wildfires generate small amounts of air pollution. Humans, however, create far more substantial quantities that have greatly impacted the environment. An increase in outputs of pollution is the cause of acid rain, global warming, and even health risks such as heart disease and stroke.…

    Jamaica - Cuban Relations

    I have often wondered about the relationship of Jamaica and Cuba. Two island countries so close to one another with different ways of governing, how and why did Jamaica not chose the socialism route, in doing my research I found that Jamaica had come very close to doing just that. How would have Jamaica been affected if they did follow in Cuba’s footsteps? Their economy relies heavily on U.S. tourism. Was that a factor in their choice not to follow Castro’s ways?…

    What defines this project and really made it interesting is the ideology that unless a Caribbean woman has transformed herself into what the colonized wanted, then she has no intellectual culture. It is a topic in which one can entirely study to gain knowledge of how Caribbean women had their own consciousness before they were colonized. The desires to understand how Caribbean women were able to stay strong and keep their beliefs despite of the world that they knew. Also, for those that did assimilate to the world that stood before them, was it hard for them to regain their mindset and their way of life? These are questions that aroused in hopes to carefully and adequately the minds of Caribbean women to completely recognize their transformation. The impression that this research is expected to portray is to enlighten individuals to rethink their understanding of not only the women in the Caribbean but also the Caribbean itself. The comprehension about these women was constructed, deconstructed and then…
